The Vatican launches its own app!

Released by a Scottish Archbishop and quickly nicknamed ‘Sindr’, the geolocated app The Catholic App will allow the faithful to find the closest place of worship.

According to the Archbishop Cushley, the app was inspired by « The Holy Father himself». Edinburgh’s Archbishop Leo Cushley, who announced the launch, told to the Vatican Radio that “He said to be imaginative about what to do for the Holy Year of Mercy.”.

The app lets users search for the nearest confessional, Holy Mass or confessional and guide the faithful from their current location to the nearest Catholic Church.
